INFRACLAVICULAR BRACHIAL PLEXUS INJURIES
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1965Over a period of twenty years a small number of patients, thirty-one, have been seen who suffered injuries of the infraclavicular brachial plexus as a direct result of skeletal injury in the region of the shoulder joint. Except for isolated circumflex nerve injuries the prognosis is generally good whatever part of the plexus is damaged. The treatment

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1990
Brachial plexus injuries are not uncommon in sports. Knowledge of anatomy and neurophysiology is important to permit accurate diagnosis and institution of compressive treatment. Traumatic injuries can be caused by traction and compression. Unusual conditions such as acute brachial neuritis may also occur.

Obstetric Brachial Plexus Injuries
Scottish Medical Journal, 2004It is clear that OBPP will continue to be a challenge for the foreseeable future. Because it is a rare condition the best results occur in specialised units for the fairly small number of patients who do not make a full recovery within two to three months of birth. This figure varies from 10 to 80%, according to the literature.

Brachial plexus birth injuries occur at a frequency of 1-2 per 1000 births. Many of these injuries spontaneously resolve. Should spontaneous recovery not occur within the first 4-6 months of life, the prognosis for attaining movement and function of the affected appendage is significantly impaired.

Obstetric Brachial Plexus Injuries
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2009Obstetric brachial plexus lesions (OBPLs) are typically caused by traction to the brachial plexus during labor. The incidence of OBPL is about 2 per 1000 births. Most commonly, the C5 and C6 spinal nerves are affected. The prognosis is generally considered to be good, but the percentage of children who have residual deficits may be as high as 20% to 30%

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1988
Brachial plexus lesions with complete or partial palsy of the dependent musculature are a severe handicap for the patient. By microsurgery of lesions in continuity and nerve grafting in cases with complete interruption, some recovery can be achieved.

Adult Traumatic Brachial Plexus Injuries
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2005Adult traumatic brachial plexus injuries are devastating life-altering injuries occurring with increasing frequency. Evaluation includes a detailed physical examination and radiologic and electrodiagnostic studies. Critical concepts in surgical management include knowledge of injury patterns, timing of surgery, prioritization in restoration of function,

Brachial Plexus Traction Injuries
Hand Clinics, 1991Brachial plexus traction injuries most frequently occur following acute flexion or extension of the neck. The symptomatology following this injury may be defined clearly into the anatomic patterns of upper trunk, lower trunk, posterior cord, medial cord, and lateral cord radiations.
